Hi everyone

I'm currently playing around with some Panels and Views and I want to add aliases for tabs that are added to the Content Page.

For example my node is called node/54 Pathauto creates my alias as series/chuck
To access the editiing screen the edit tab forwards me to node/54/edit
I made a custom alias from series/chuck/edit to node/54/edit

I think it is clear what I did here. My question is, if it would be hard to implement this feature for Pathauto? I think for the Edit page this is fairly trivial, I think it wokrs analogously to the way feed aliases are created.

My point would be a integration to Panel and Views Tabs. I think a dynamic way could be possible - even static configuration like: Every time you create a alias provide a alias for the tabs edit, feed, paneltab1, paneltab2 etc. What I call "dynamic" way could somehow be, that one can lookup existing tabs for a node by investigating the menu structure of a node path and then create additional input fields on the Pathauto configuration site. Maybe it can also be made Content Type sensitiv.

As my skills in coding are very limited i have no idea of the impact of this issues programming wise.

But thank you for reading my Issue, I hope I gave you a nice idea for Pathauto

Merry Christmas!
Johnny

This is a duplicate of the request for multiple aliases for one node: #217707: Multiple patterns/paths for one entity

The major concern with this is that the Path system in Drupal core is already a potential performance bottleneck on many sites and adding this feature would only make that more true. This would only be good on a site with very few nodes/users or with a serious server to handle the load.
